The Nintendo 2DS is a handheld gaming device developed as an entry level version of the Nintendo 3DS with nearly identical hardware, but without the 3D upper screen function.

What if console gets wet?

The 2ds got wet. It continued to work the next day but then stopped working. Is there anything I can do to get it working again?

Jen,

how did it get wet? or better said how much water did it take?

I think the best thing to do is open up the device ( here is a link of the 3 ds but is almost the same Nintendo 3DS Teardown )

and clean the mainboard and components with isopropyl alcohol. afterwards let it dry.

it is possible that the battery is dead. due to the water.

but first try to clean the components and let us know

kind regards,

Kevin

In addition to previous reply, after cleaning with alcohol I will suggest a 5 min tratment on medium heat with a heat gun.

That usually removes any humidity and of course if having any oxidation, concentrate on those spots.

Good luck.

But what if you are too paranoid to open the system? What should you do then?
